During pregnancy, a woman is so worried about his baby, which tries to prevent any disease. And what is your surprise and at the same time there is a sadness when, it would seem, there are no cottage allocations with this, it starts to bother ... thrush.
We offer readers and readers our site to figure out how dangerous this disease and what this symptom should say.
What means «thrush»
So, the name itself speaks for its manifestations - unbearable itching, the swelling of large and small sexes, curly whitewastered, unpleasant smell. Most often, such symptoms cause Candida's yeast-like mushrooms, giving names with numerous drugs produced to treat this disease. But therefore we are discussing the problem of a pregnant woman for which most drugs are prohibited.
Why pregnant more often sick?
The answer is simple - because the woman's body during pregnancy is tremendous «Perestroika», Hormonal attacks, reduced immunity both common and local. Including the protective function of the vaginal secret. It is enough to simply change the means for intimate hygiene, badly rinse underwear or swim in the summer in a not very clean reservoir.
But everything would be fine if in some cases the disease did not have the character of the indicator that helps to recognize a more dangerous pathogen rather than an intestinal wand or mushrooms.
Pregnancy actively stimulates a number «Restricted» In the body of a woman, including relapse (renewal) «Sleeping» infections. For example, if a woman shortly before the pregnancy has infected with chlamydia, then «thrush» will be only a symptom that signals that in the body is not in order.
Therefore, gynecologists advise the first tests on sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or to the planned pregnancy, or in early terms. And first of all, because with a positive result for some STDs Pregnant, And also to make and give birth to a healthy child almost impossible.
Diagnostics «thrush»
If pregnant when registering in the female consultation complies with all the recommendations of the gynecologist, then the first analysis is at the beginning, and the second for a period of 30 weeks.
The most convenient and frequently used diagnostic method is PCR, which is capable of reliably determine the pathogenic vaginal microflora. The analysis is paid, but in the absence of specific symptoms, you can check the smear for gonorrhea, chlamydia, mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis and Trichomoniaz. Having received a negative result and being confident in its sexual partner, a pregnant woman in the event of symptoms «thrush» may just undergo a course of treatment.
If the survey was not conducted, the woman herself cannot say with confidence that he is healthy, analyzes should be held. At least for the sake of the health of the future kid, which, by the way, during childbirth is undergoing a huge danger of infection and the implementation of intrauterine infection.
Treatment
We will consider the safest ways «thrush» W Pregnant women. But it is possible to apply them only with absolute confidence that, in addition to her, a woman is healthy.
Let's start with simple techniques that should be observed, not even pain:
- All underwear is erased by children's soap (washing powder or economic soap will cause unnecessary irritation of the mucous membrane), stroke and only then wear;
- We use underwear from natural materials (not sexy, but convenient and useful). No thongs;
- Strictly observe intimate hygiene;
- sexual rest for all treatment time;
- Minimize the use of meat products and sweets, «Laying» Fresh vegetables and fruits;
- Locally, you can apply chamomile decoction (or boiled filter package). He relieves itching and effectively contributes to the healing of combs;
- Mirismine irrigate only large sex lips;
- No sprints.
Medications
According to a plurality of commercials, one capsule is able to get rid of symptoms «thrush». All right. But the pregnant woman is important not just the mute symptoms, but direct treatment. Therefore, annoying annoying advertising slogans.
So for treatment «thrush» Now use a large number of drugs. They differ in the names and form form. Tablets, creams and suppositories (candles). Consider each of them.
- Tablets are the most convenient and rapid way to treat. But not for pregnant women. In most cases «thrush» Pregnant women take a long time, capable of returning and start parasitis. Therefore, 1 tablet will not help, and drink more means to jeopardize the health of the baby. I will only add that the pills after dissolution go into the bloodstream and for a long time in it circulate. So, the child will receive the drug.
- Vaginal creams are inconvenient to use relative to mobility, and the time of being in the vagina and, therefore, the time of action is small;
- Vaginal suppositories (candles) are the most versatile and easy to use treatment «thrush». First, the base of the candle, most often, Vaseline or Oil. This allows them to dissolve in the temperature of the vagina, give maximum drug. Secondly, the medicine does not go to the bloodstream, it is used exclusively. Consequently, the child can not harm. And, thirdly, candles can be applied for the night.
The most popular drugs today are ketoconazole and fluconazole. They effectively affect the fungus, destroying its nutritional wall.
At the end I would like to note that the diagnosis and appointment of treatment «To myself» are incorrect and, often dangerous. Therefore, at the first signs «thrush» Contact your gynecologist, examine and get recommendations.
